  • American Jazz Museum
    AMERICAN JAZZ MUSEUM ANNUAL REPORT | FISCAL YEAR 2014 OUR MISSION To celebrate and exhibit the experience of jazz as an original American art form through performance, exhibitions, education, and research at one of the country’s jazz crossroads: 18th & Vine. OUR VISION To become a premier destination that will expand the in!uence and knowledge of jazz throughout greater Kansas City and the world. OUR HISTORY Many years ago, 18th & Vine buzzed with the culture and commerce of Kansas City’s African-American community. The infectious energy of the people gave life to a new kind of music… and the music gave it right back to the people. Over the years the area languished, but the music and the musicians became legends! In 1989, the City of Kansas City, Missouri committed $26 million to a revitalization of 18th & Vine, led by the visionary and tireless efforts of then City Councilman and now Congressman Emanuel Cleaver II (former Kansas City Mayor.) By 1997, the city had a vibrant new complex housing the Kansas City Jazz Museum and the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum, as well as the Horace M. Peterson III Visitor Center, with a newly refurbished Gem Theater across the street. Soon after, the Museum and its board and staff determined that the Kansas City Jazz Museum’s name should be changed to the American Jazz Museum to re!ect that the museum is the only museum in the world that is totally devoted to America’s true classical music -- jazz. The American Jazz Museum continues to ful"ll its mission by serving as a good caretaker of its collections and artifacts, as well as managing the Blue Room jazz club, the Gem Theater, the Changing Gallery, and the public spaces of the Museums at 18th & Vine.
